About the Recipe
This is a strong toothpaste for whitening. I would not recommend to use this every day because you don't want the baking soda to wear down your enamel. However, it's great to freshen up your mouth when you want to brighten your smile and keep your mouth clean from bacteria.
Turmeric is a whitening agent that works with the baking soda to neutralize acids from plaque and helps prevent gingivitis or gum disease. This method is great because it has no fluoride and harmful ingredients that can damage your thyroid. Read more in our blog in regards to the damages of fluoride.
Make sure to scrub your tongue and gums and rinse well.

2 Teaspoons Water
Preparation
Step 1
